General ServicingPrecautions
1.Always unplug the receiverACpowercordfromthe ACpowersourcebefore:
a.Removingorreinstallinganycomponent, circuitboardmoduleoranyotherassembly
of the receiver.
b.Disconnecting orreconnecting anyreceiverelectricalplugorotherelectrical
connection.
c.Connecting atest substituteinparallelwithanelectrolyticcapacitorinthe receiver.
CAUTION: Awrong substitutionpartorincorrectinstallation polarityofelectrolytic
capacitorsmayresultinan explosion hazard.
d.Discharging the picturetubeanode.
2.Testhighvoltage onlybymeasuringitwithan appropriatehighvoltage meterorother
voltage-measuringdevice(DVM,FETVOM,etc.)equippedwithasuitablehighvoltage
probe. Donot test high voltage by “drawinganarc”.
3.Discharge the picturetube anode onlyby(a)firstconnecting one end ofan insulated clip
leadtothe degaussingorkine aquadaggrounding systemshieldatthe pointwherethe
picturetube socketgroundlead isconnected,and then (b)touchthe otherendofthe
